XCLN: Tab Doesn't Change Focus in Richedit Control

ID: Q146210


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Electronic Forms Designer, version 4.0


SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Exchange Form multiline richedit controls don't support any tab key combination that allows you to tab out of it to the next field specified in a window's tab order.


CAUSE

This is working as designed.


WORKAROUND

There are several workarounds to this problem:

  • Put the multiline richedit control at the end of the tab order.


  • Use a single line richedit control.


  • Use an edit control instead of a richedit control.


  • Don't put the multiline richedit control in the tab order.
